Stay safe, rpietila and castle crew.
I hope Estonian decision-makers see this. I am very troubled by the seemingly unfounded, unsensical and summary treatment of Otto. If the intention is to give the impression that the rule-of-law does not hold in Estonia, it has been given. I am awaiting high-level contact to ensure that there remains a possibility to continue building the Malla Bitcoin Center. If not, I am humbled that this development was regarded as such a big threat that the 2-decade old tradition of liberty in the country needed to be violated because of it.
Don't take it too seriously, though (everyone)
We play a moment and then we die. And bad guys go to hell. The choice is yours.After 19 months of reading this forum, for me this is the best quote so far! The essence of life
Another of the king's chief men, approving of his wise words and exhortations, added thereafter: "The present life of man upon earth, O king, seems to me, in comparison with that time which is unknown to us, like to the swift flight of a sparrow through the house wherein you sit at supper in winter, with your ealdormen and thegns, while the fire blazes in the midst, and the hall is warmed, but the wintry storms of rain or snow are raging abroad. The sparrow, flying in at one door and immediately out at another, whilst he is within, is safe from the wintry tempest; but after a short space of fair weather, he immediately vanishes out of your sight, passing from winter into winter again. So this life of man appears for a little while, but of what is to follow or what went before we know nothing at all. If, therefore, this new doctrine tells us something more certain, it seems justly to deserve to be followed." The other elders and king's counsellors, by Divine prompting, spoke to the same effect.
